Mugging the Monster/Music

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Examples of Mugging the Monster in Music include:

  • The premise of the song "Earth's Fire Breathing Daughter" by Leslie Fish. The titular sort-of-demigoddess entity buys a house in California with her coven and start enacting pagan rites. Neighbors complain and send the police after them on false drug charges. She triggers an earthquake and mudslide that kill the entire police force and destroy all the surrounding houses, while of course leaving hers entirely intact. (They deserve it.)
  • The music video for Skrillex's "First of the Year (Equinox)" is about a pedophile choosing the absolute worst victim possible.
